“How Stilwell Sold Out” by Frederic Remington, illustrated by the author, in Collier’s Magazine, December 16, 1899.

Remington tells the story of Army Scout Jack Stilwell who, in 1868, was tasked with saving a band of fellow soldiers led by General Forsyth. They had been attacked by over a thousand Indians and the situation could not be worse. Relief must be had or they were doomed. Jack Stilwell, accompanied by an old French Rocky Mountain trapper by the name of Trudeau, had to go through the country swarming with mounted Indians with a message to Fort Wallace, over a hundred miles away. Did they succeed in their mission?
